Senegal TEAM
The Senegalese team have some star names in their rank but also have a well-balanced team that proved their mettle during their victorious AFCON 2021 campaign. Led by Sadio Mane at the apex of their attack, they are in good hands with the FC Bayern Munich forward delivering the goods for the Lions of Teranga.
Their midfield could be the only place where you would think that some more creative impetus would be good. In defense, they have Kalidou Koulibaly to captain the troops from the back and also Edouard Mendy to ensure safety between the sticks.
